CHAPTER XIV,

Raymond returned TO Meridon farm. His
mother did not need to question him; she had
noticed the traces of sorrow and trouble on
his mobile face on his departure; she saw joy
and hope when he returned
Something pleasant has happened, my
sonl'
He smiled, but only said
II can tell you nothing, mother-yet"--
"Well"
II am happy and wish you to share my
JOY"
"And her refusal?'
"Was not on her own account There was
an obstacle between u.s."
"dow many mysteriesl and tho obstacle
has ceased to eXist.'

"And your marriage"
"Soon, | hope. 1t depends on certain
things, which am not at liberty to tell, but
l hope soon"
pray God you have your wish, my dear
boy. / ask no more to render my own hap
piness complete" said this mother, who was
so blind. Afterwards they both remembered
this wish. Her face cleared and she grew
quite cheerful in the knowledge that her
favorite son was to be happy, Not one COM
miserating thought did she bestow upon her
elder son, whose heart lay like lead in his
bosom, and who had no idea that Raymond
was his successful rival.
From the day he saw Suzanne last Ray
mond had but one desire and one preoccupa-
ton, and that was to discover the mystery in
the affair concerning her father,
At Paris, at police headquarters, he found
no difficulty in getting all the facts he de-
sired. The Laroque affair was not forgot
ten, and with the exception Of Henrietta and
Lucien all those who had been especially in
terested in it were still alive, and he thought
he could easily find them.
The days passed in minute reconstruction
and copy of all the testimony, and, though
he could not see his way clear to prove it, he
saw clearly how justice had followed up
Roger Laroque upon a preconceived theory
Of his guilt given by M, Lecroix, and thus
they had never made any movement toward
the discovery of the real criminal He studied

in the hope of having my sentence reversed
by law and my good name restored"
During more than week Roger lay sick
and Suzanne remained by his side, and never
were that unfortunate couple so happy, for
now there were no more shadows between
them and they could talk upon the subject
which engrossed both their minds. Raymond
had tried in vain to meet Suzanne, but as she
went out no more he naturally could not see
her, and at last, one Sunday, he could bear
the suspense no longer. He must see her, he
felt, or die; besides he had something to say
to her which he hoped might lift the dark
pail which had fallen over their young lives.

rising was the signal for loud cheering.

nation alone could accomplish. He drew

and expressed himself perfectly confident

KNIGHTS OF LABOR.
Stirring Appeal in Their Favor by Car
dinal Gibbons.

by Telegraph
ROME, March 3d-Cardinal Gibbons has
reported to the Propaganda in reference TO
the knights of Labor in the United States.
He makes stirring appeal to the church
TO beware of getting herself branded as
" un-American." and in terms which, even
through the imperfect medium of inditier-
ent French, are eloquent; reminds the
Propaganda that the greatest and grandest
title of the Church to the affection and de-
yotion of Americans lies in her being above
ali things 1.-The friend of the people" Va
rious considerations, more or less of eccle-
siastical interest, follow, some a trifle re-
dundant, and then the Cardinal closes:
To sum up, 1t seems to me plain that the
HOLY See cannot entertain the proposal to
condemn the Association.
l. Because such condemnation does not
appear to be justified. either by the letter or
the spirit of its constitution, of its laws, or
by the declarations of its heads.
9. That such a condemnation does not
appear necessary in view of the transient
form OF the organization and OF the social
condition Of the United States.
3. That it would not be prudent, on ac-
count of the reality of the wrongs of the
workiDgmen and the fact that the existence
of such is allowed by the American public
4. That it would be dangerous to the
reputation of the Church in our democratic
country.
5. That it would be powerless TO compel
the obedience OF our Catholic workingmen
who would regard it as false and Ubiquitous
6. That il would be destructive instead
of beneficial in its effects, forcing the sons
of the church to rebel against their mother
and to range themselves with condemned
societies, which they have hitherto avoided
:. That it would be ruinous to the tinan-
cial support at Rome and to the raising OF
Peters Pence.
s. That it would turn into doubt and
hostility the marked devotion of our PEG,
pie to the Holy See.
9. That it would be regarded as a cruel
blow to the authority of the Bishops Of
the United States, who, it is well known,
protest against such condemnation.
EFFECT OF CARDINAL GIBBONS STATEMENT.
New YORK, March 3d-The Herald says
Among the clergy of various denomlna-
tons in this city, the action of Cardinal
Gibbons in laying before the Vatican a
favorable statement regarding the Knights
OF Labor organization in the United States
has excited great deal of interest. Nearly
every one of some twenty-five or thirty
clergymen who were spoken with yester-
day on the subject, expressed satisfaction
with the Cardinals course 1t was gen.
orally regarded that his recommendation
would be adopted by the authorities al
Rome, in which event it appeared to be al
most the universal opinion that the knights
would at once receive great accessions OF
strength and the order would assume an
importance which it has never heretofore
possessed.
